MSP advisory on AR pistols with braces

[fishgutzy]

ATF director lied under oath the other day. He actually said that the ruled allowed one to simply remove and keep the brace, not "permanently remove and dispose of the brace." ATF has previously said that having a brace and an AR pistol, even if not attached will be treated as possession of an unregistered SBR.

How did you submit your application? Was if fairly straightforward?

 

[Alutacon]

There we go. We have our answer. Thanks for letting us know.

I'm glad I saw this. I think I am gonna register one of my lowers and couldn't remember the magic parts to get it over 29in.

So we've confirmed sub 29" semi autos are being approved?

 

[Alutacon]

You’re welcome

Question, we're you at exactly 2 weeks or was it 2 weeks and some days?

 

[Alutacon]

So we've confirmed sub 29" semi autos are being approved?

Seems so.

 

[Mike1690]

Question, were you at exactly 2 weeks or was it 2 weeks and some days?

Certified 4/6. Approved 4/27. 3 weeks. I was never good at math. Sorry

Question:

Was the less than 29" one you got approval for purchased that way or did you build it yourself? Does this matter?

Purchased that way. I don’t think it matters so long as you don’t swap out the brace for a stock but what do I know? I’m just a regular schmuck.

Yup

Have heard the same thing, attaching the MSP letter to the Form1 gets < 29" SBRs approved. Can't put a stock on it unless it's a 22, or you file a form 20 and take it out of state. Might also be a way that I can take some of my SBRs to MD by slapping a brace on it, being I normally couldn't shoot them in MD. Either way I might be inclined to form 1 a braced pistol or two if I was still in MD.
